Rating:  Summary: These guys know their stuff Review: A+ book for your qualification exam. It is not a 1-stop-shop, but more of an awesome overview which really makes you doublecheck and see if you have covered all the bases. When I asked for my serial #, I also received an indepth PDF file of all the latest changes to the book that reflect the changes in the exam! I HIGHLY recommend it.
Rating:  Summary: Two pints of Lager and a packet of crisp please!!! Review: An excellent book which really drives everything home. This really helped me out right before taking the Written. If you want to nail this on the first try, get it. Cheers to the lads at Network Learning. Well done.
Rating:  Summary: strongly recommended. Review: An excellent book, easy to comprehend. Materials coverved were well presented. Read the book in 2 days cram and it did help passing the test. Make sure to use other reading resources too as this book will only provide basic information. Strongly recommended for those taking the written exams.
Rating:  Summary: Very good book to summarize, find spots you forgot about. Review: Got my 350-001 with this one, boson and the all in one ccie study guide(giles). The guys from ccbootcamp know their ccie stuff, point you in directions you have not studied enough. Be aware that you have to know your stuff before you pick up this book. The exam is too difficult for a 200+ page book. So combine and use to summarize.
Rating:  Summary: Very little information Review: I don't know what the people have seen in this book. It's extremly expensive, is small, and it hasn't the in-depth information I'd expect for a ccie written test. It only outlines information, nothing more. For example: for FIFOs, WFQ, Queuing, QoS and traffic shaping there are.. 13 pages!! OSPF is treated in ยก4 pages!I haven't taken ccie written yet, but I expect it to be a difficult test, and I think this book is going to be of no use.
Rating:  Summary: Not enough depth + too expensive Review: I don't understand all the positive reviews. This book is overrated. It has ~250 pages of very generic information. Do not expect to find any details in this book. It is also useless as a reference. Any Cisco press book has much more useful info than this "study guide". I have not even tried their tests yet, because, get this, you have to register with the NLI to get a serial number first. and then you can install it on one computer only. So if you use two computers (home and office) to study, then you're [in trouble]... The only reason I gave it two stars is because I still hope that the tests will live up to the expectations.
Rating:  Summary: Awesome book, but know what you're buying Review: i just wanted to say what an awesome book this is, everything is laid out very well, and it's the only cisco-related book so far where i havent fallen asleep after an hour. it actually sounds like a human wrote it (it gives nice little examples, and isn't all dry "cisco press" lecturing). this book won't have every single configuration command in existence, because it is a "study guide", but does very well in outlining everything and getting your mindset in the right place for the exam. nitpicking: -atm section seemed to be a bit sparse to me. -lots of typos, not technical ones, but mainly grammatical or spelling. not worrisome, but still irkful<--is that a word? i'd like to give it 5 stars, but im reserving that for their next edition... :P

Rating:  Summary: Excellent Book Review: I really enjoyed reading this book. It is extremely well laid out and was a great resource I used to study for the CCIE routing and switching qualification exam. I had some questions about the book that I emailed to the author and he personally responded to my questions! Now that's service! I highly recommend purchasing this book if you are going for your R&S qual. exam.
